SMALL TRADE COMPANY

was founded in 2010 by designer and creative director Matt Dick based in San Francisco, CA. Small trade company is a meditation on making creating collections inspired by people and time, traveled, timeless and rooted in function silhouettes and using materials that represent the spirit and the story of the maker. They intend to create something to keep and inherit.

Matt's strong background in studying textiles at the California college of the Arts and apprenticeship in indigo dye technique in Japan with master Nakajima Yasuo has given him the tools and inspiration to start up and take this project further.
